GET READY FOR one of the Peninsula Daily News' biggest editions of the year Thursday — Thanksgiving Day!

It will be packed with pre-printed advertising inserts, display ads and money-saving coupons from local and regional businesses and individuals — just in time for holiday shopping and, of course, Black Friday.

See what expanded or earlier store hours and holiday specials local and regional retailers will have for Thanksgiving, Black Friday and beyond.

The PDN also joins with the many local businesses who ask that you “Shop Local” as much as you can for the holiday season.

Thanksgiving is also a “bonus day” for our weekend-only subscribers.

Those who normally get the PDN delivered to their home only on Fridays and Sundays will also get the newspaper this Thursday.

Weekend-only subscribers get the PDN delivered on major holidays.

For non-home subscribers of the newspaper, Circulation Director Michelle Lynn recommends that people go to nearby stores and dealers to purchase a Thursday newspaper.

Because of the size of the newspaper, only a limited number of copies can fit in the PDN's regular distribution racks, so these racks may be empty early in the day.

Residents who would like to subscribe to the PDN may call the Circulation Department at 360-452-4507 or 800-826-7714.

Subscribe now and get our “Thanksgiving Special” of 13 weeks for only $17.18, a substantial savings off our newsstand price.

And if you call us by 5 p.m. Tuesday, you'll receive the hefty Thanksgiving holiday edition.
